Here is last night’s dinner.
Fried rice with tofu, ham, and Shanghai greens.
I had gone to the market to pick up groceries, but I still had some greens and tofu left over from Sunday’s run, and I wasn’t about to let them go to waste.
I had some rice in the rice cooker (the first step to most dinners I make here) and was ready to make something of it. So I took the tofu, cut it up into little cubes, sliced up some small Shanghai greens (you may know this as baby bok choy), and opened up a sealed packet of ham that had been in the fridge for a while. I fried it all up with some garlic in a tablespoon or two of oil, added the rice, mixed it all together, tossed in a splash of soy sauce and ground some pepper over it, and voila! There’s dinner. Cheap, easy, and good.
